Champions Of Christ Church Community Group

This is a church, but online! Most people view a church as the building you go to for worship. NOT TRUE. In the beginning, it was a community that shared things. This is a church. A web-based community who can share with others. Feel free to ask questions. There are no "dumb" questions. How will you know unless you ask. I only ask that you have JOY. (Respect of Jesus,...

I like this verse too:

Psalm 103:6 (NLT) "The LORD gives righteousness and justice to all who are treated unfairly."

This shows that I will be willing to discuss scripture as well as any attitude you might have.}



Why such a negative attitude, Annie?

And, I don't understand "book of the gentiles" and "book of the Jews".

If you mean the "old testament" over the "new testament" it is not the Jews over the gentiles.

Romans 3:29 New Life Version (NLV)
29 Is God the God of the Jews only? Is He not the God of the people who are not Jews also? He is for sure.

This scripture that God is for everybody.

Romans 15:10-11 New Life Version (NLV)
10 It says also, “You who are not Jews, be happy with His people, the Jews.” 11 And, “Honor and give thanks to the Lord, you who are not Jews. Let everyone honor Him.”

LET EVERYONE HONOR HIM!!!

The word "gentile" is mentioned 53 times in the KJV, in the old testament alone.
God NEVER meant for us to be against each other. He loves ALL. Yes, he called the Israelites to be a chosen people, set apart. But, they, as a group, regected Jesus. And the Gentiles were included through what Jesus did FOR ALL.

There is no "Jew" over "gentiles".

Romans 3:22-24 New King James Version (NKJV)
22 even the righteousness of God, through faith in Jesus Christ, to all and on all who believe. For there is no difference; 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus,

Yes, I understand that most these scriptures are in the "new testament". But, its not a Jewish scripture over a Gentile scripture.

It is "the law given to Moses" over the "testament of Jesus". The Gospel, the good news of Christ. The "Old Testament" tells about the coming of Jesus. The "New Testament"tells the story of His life and death...and the things that come after.

So, I am confused why you make such a difference between Jew and Gentile?
According to scripture (old and new), there is NO difference.

And, I am a living testament of this scripture.

I have overcome a stroke, heart attach, many TIA's, breast cancer, hysterectomy, dialysis....and that's just the major stuff.

God has plans for my life yet,
So, until he calls me home, in not going anywhere!

you dont understand me i see that now, to not upset you i removed my reply.i seem to have trouble with the ultra religious, they seem to be so strong in their convictions that they sometimes will ignore what i say. listen to your heart, god resides there. if you have love in your heart god will speak the truth , listen to it.
